New Money - Walker Hayes

Aye

Grew up in a southern dimension
Where double wides sat next door to mansions
Bad lady walking by the prep school
Rich girls by the cheap motel pool

Seventeen, didn't have a dollar made
Got married in the magnolia shade
They said we shouldn't, so we did
Started chasing dreams, trying to make some babies and

New money, like it's gold, honey
So maybe our kids can be old money
Down the road, who knows
Might get your new kitchen but you can't take it with you
When you go, honey, radio money
Ain't got nothing on Jesus bringing that soul money
Said all I know is you and him loved me when I didn't have no money
Girl, you got me on a roll, honey
I don't need no money

Nashville made us even broker
Two jobs, still playing the joker
In a cover band down on Broadway
Guess I learned to dream the hard way

And so will my sons and so will my daughters
'Cause they get good night kisses from a father like mine
Who followed his heart
Instead of the shine and

New money, like it's gold, honey
So maybe our kids can be old money
Down the road, who knows
Might get your new kitchen but you can't take it with you
When you go, honey, radio money
Ain't got nothing on Jesus bringing that soul money
Said all I know is you and him loved me when I didn't have no money

No problems, one kiss and, baby, you solve 'em
Everything is better with you, and it ain't got nothing to do with that
New money
Nah, don't know what I'd do without you, honey
All I know is you and Jesus loved me when I didn't have

New money, like it's gold, honey
So maybe our kids can be old money
Down the road, who knows
Might get your new kitchen but you can't take it with you
When you go, honey, radio money
Ain't got nothing on Jesus bringing that soul money
Said all I know is you and him loved me when I didn't have no money
Girl, you got me on a roll, honey
I don't need no money
